Yamat DLC is live, new Roadmap & Yalee Plushies!
over 1 year ago – Mon, Jul 29, 2024 at 08:08:38 AM

Yamat DLC and 1.6 version are now live on Steam!

You can find everything about Yamat, the 1.6 version and more here - Steam Newsletter

We promised this 5th playable during the Kickstarter campaign back in April 2021, what a journey since then! Adding a new hero with all the features we added in the meantime, the 2 voice over languages and more was a lot of work and we are really happy about the results and we are hoping you will like her as much as we do!

If you have a Steam key from Kickstarter for the game, you can claim a Yamat DLC key for free as promised on our Discord Server in the #kickstarter-rewards channel.

If you have a digital or physical console reward, the Yamat DLC keys are not ready to be claimed yet, we hope to have the DLC released and the keys soon! (aimed for August 5 for PS4/PS5 and August12 for Switch)

Speaking of Physical editions, the Limited Run Games edition pre-orders are done and they should start manufacturing the copies really soon with an estimated shipping for october-november 2024! 

Yalee plushies!

The most wanted Merch from our discord servers related polls was Yalee Plushies (obviously) so we launched a petition on Makeship to have them crafted and we need 200 people interested for them to happen, more details in the Steam Newsletter.

Aren't they adorable?

Roadmap to 2.0

We are really happy to announce that, even if the new promised Hero DLC release seemed like the end for Astral Ascent updates, so much more is already planned and in the work!

You can once again see more of it in the Steam Newsletter with teasing of what is coming next!

This newsletter was shorter than usual because it's a lot of work to create the newsletter in Steam and Kickstarter, especially for such a big newsletter!

Have an excellent week everyone, we hope you will enjoy what we worked on!
